Stretches for Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy

Описание к видео Stretches for Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy

This video walks you through different types of stretches for Duchenne muscular dystrophy.

A regular stretching regime to keep muscles and tendons supple should be part of a young man's daily routine in order to help prevent the development of contractures. Contractures are a tightening of the muscle and tendons, which limit the full range of movement in a joint. They are inevitable if a regular stretching program is not part of a boy's daily regime. This tightness occurs because not all muscles lose strength at the same time or pace, and boys with Duchenne develop irregular postures to compensate for this uneven weakness.
